It's been on since 6 this morning and I'm in agony - band is digging in ferociously to my back. On train home from work (work in London live in the midlands). Train is busy but no one sat next to me.
I reckon I could get of off in stealth - Ninja style and slip it in my bag.
AIBU and should I just sit here and suffer for the sake of bra/train ettiquette?

Would you be able to just undo it? I've done that in the past!

Do it. No worse than men adjusting themselves.

I'd probably leave it on but just undo it at the back

I do this after a long day - slip the strap down your sleeve and once you have done that you can slide the whole thing down your arm and straight into a bag.

Undo it if you have too but don't take it off. That's odd.

I sympathise because trains are rubbish, I seem to spend my life commuting on them.

Um so what if there is CCTV? Is it illegal? Just dominant revel in the comfort!

I think if you do the down-the-sleeve technique you should be ok anyway.

Can't you nip to the loo and take it off there?

Hmm "do it and" not dominant

Can just undo it unfortunately. I am a lady of large norkage and my top is quite loose. I'll never get it done up again and it will flop forward (bra not boobs) and most likely land on the unsuspecting elderly man in front of me when I stand up

I am quite well norked as well and I have just tested the sleeve technique out and my underwired bra won't fit through it. I feel cheated.

Can't you just go and do it in the bathroom?
